Best of Creedence Clearwater Revival

Great selection of CCR's best hits.

Great songs

Great cd,

My favorite band when I was growing up and still my favorite.

This is a great Cd of the hits one after another on o e cd the only low point found was the songs Suzi Q and Heard it through the Grapevine are edited to their shorter version which for me was sad as they are two of my favorite songs which I then had to buy the 3disc version cd of hits to get the long version of those songs. But it is a better version than the original greatest hits Cd Chronicles.

My dad is the hardest person in the world to buy gifts for. You ask, 'what do you want, dad? What does your heart desire? What useless material possession can we give you that will evoke a pleasant emotion?' And every time his response is 'nothing'. To all dads reading this, I beg of you, don't do this! Make a list of inexpensive items that, even if you don't want them, you wouldn't hate to be given them. You will save your children hours of stress and worry. So it was this last holiday season. What could I give him within my budget that would mean anything at all? How could I possibly give him anything, when he already has everything? Then it came like a flash of lightning one day while we were driving. I had purchased a John Denver CD months before, and every time dad drove, it was played, sometimes on repeat for hours. As I heard 'Leaving on a Jet Plane' for five billionth time, something inside me snapped, and I said to myself 'how I wish we had another CD that dad liked!' Then I remembered. The only music my father has ever requested I play for him. If you're reading this, you've probably guessed it. Creedence Clearwater Revival. With renewed vigor I pulled out my phone! For once in my life, I had hope! I truly cannot express the thrill I experienced knowing that I would be able to give him something he didn't even know he needed. The CD arrived and I lovingly wrapped it in leftover wrapping paper, placing it beneath our behemoth of a tree. And I awaited Christmas morning. I woke up early the dawn of December 25th, 2019. My first thought was not of the gifts I would be getting, but of the CD, and the knowledge that I would soon be rubbing my gifting skills in my brother's face. We sat around the tree, and after several other gifts, dad picked up the unassuming package, and opened it. There was no sign on his face that he felt anything at all at the sight of it. 'looks good,' he said. 'thank you.' For my dad, this is a declaration of intense fondness for the gift! I was thrilled, and soon forgot about it. Then, sometime after the new year, we went on a drive, and he played the CD. The first time through I enjoyed it. There were songs that I knew that he didn't! We sang along and bonded over this seemingly insignificant CD. The second time through, I enjoyed it, though there were one or two songs I wished he would skip. The third time through, I put on my headphones. The three hundredth time through, I vowed that I would invent a time machine, go back in time, and make sure the parents of every single band member wore a condom. My days are haunted by these songs. I dread going out. When I hear the opening chords of the first song, my fight or flight is activated. I will never know peace because of one simple mistake. If you, like my father, greatly enjoy CCR, buy this CD. But woe be unto the daughters attempting to please their fathers. Turn back now before it's too late. (I later found out CCR isn't his favorite band. I dread next Christmas when I will forget the lesson I have learned and buy a Three Dog Night CD.)

Best for the money with a sound that makes the "Chronicle" CD's ancient at best and antediluvian at worst. Someone once said Johnny and CCR never let you down. Indeed. The "Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Songs Of All Time" lists four from CCR. Hey, they only missed 20 others. What are you going to do? Now to the CD: Cut 2: "Born On The Bayou". The remastering pays off with Stu Cook's bass guitar sounding better than ever. Cut 4: "Travelin Band". If not the greatest CCR song it's right at the top. Cut 9: "Fortunate Son". Again the enhanced sound makes the difference. Cut 11: "Run Through The Jungle". One of John's best songs. Cut 23: "The Midnight Special". CCR's rendition of this nugget can't be surpassed. Those songs stand out as do "Hey Tonight", "Molina" and "I Heard It Through The Grapevine". However, there's really not a weak cut. JUST A GREAT CD.

Credence Clearwater Revival is a terrific band, and this album truly is their best. I am enjoying this album very much. Highly recommended.

Great listening .

Ok reçu bonne qualité

Excellent collection: contains all their great hits

懐かしい曲ばかりで全体に凄く良い曲ばかりで特に好きなのがHAVE YOU EVER SEEN THERAINとWHO'LL STOP THE RAINを聴くと良過ぎて鳥肌がでます。他の曲も馴染みの曲が沢山入って満足です。CCR最高！！

Compré este recopilario para sustituir mi copia del Chronicle editado en 1991. Esta version es mucho mejor. Tiene mejor sonido (excelente), tiene una estética más actual e incluye las mismas canciones que el Chronicle menos: "Commotion" (que, en mi opinón, era la menos esencial del recopilatorio) "Someday never comes" y añade: "Born on the Bayou" (acierto!!) "It came out of the Sky" "Cotton Fields" "Molina" "Hello Mary Lou" "The Midnight Special" Así que no lo dudéis, es un discazo de una banda irrepetible.
